While
While Statements are the most basic form of loop in Dyvil. They consist of a head and a body.
while condition { statements... }
while (condition) expression
A While Statement always checks the condition first. If it evaluates to
true, the body is executed. Afterwards, the condition is checked again and if it is still true, the body is executed again. This process is repeated until the condition evaluates to false, or the body is left using break or return statements or exceptions. A While Statement can not return a value itself and always has the type void.The following example illustrates how a While Statement can be used to display numbers.
var i = 1
while i <= 5
{
i++
}
// prints 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
